Messy Mies and the MASSIVE middle
Skokie, IL, United States
Messy Mies is a meditation on a work that was previously a filler piece in Miesian histories. We used documents in the MoMA archive to construct the first known model of the Brussels Pavilion. What was previously passed over is actually a powerful, instructive work of Architecture. Brussels illustrates how Mies created effects at different sizes with different techniques. It also is a forerunner to the IIT Campus, the Seagram Building and the Neue Nationale Galerie in Berlin.
Our aim was to demonstrate effects that made Architecture out of what could have been merely a collection of models. Flash cards could be deployed by the viewer to engage and interact with the models in an analog way. It was radio rather than color TV.
We also used control layers, specifically pink rigid foam insulation, a most unheroic material ignored by Mies in many of his details, and created the Barca Chairs as a seating arrangement for the IIT Dinner Table.
